20 round magazine for a 1903 Springfield

[DandyFirst]

I have a 20 round magazine for a 1903 Springfield. This was the modification to the 1903 for use in observation aircraft. I would like to sell it. It is new in the original box and has the typewritten letter from the original vendor, who I believe was Bannerman. I am curious as to the current value of this magazine.

might try the for sale and wanted section....was made for Air service google it.. no many were actually used or made, more magazines then rifles for sure.

I noticed one sold on online auction recently for more than $200. It was complete with the plate that held the follower and spring in, but not the box.

BTW these extension magazines increase the magazine capacity to 27 rounds.

I just saw two examples on a dealer's site yesterday. With box $695.00. Without box $500.00. Granted they are unsold, but perhaps they will still help in your valuation.

Here is one with the box that just sold on Gun broker for $531.89
